Bayo 2. Mature. Woman going around with bolt on boobs and skintight PVC outfit. Yeah, that's not mature. That's what a 14 yr old would call mature...

Why does everyone assume any male that likes women being depicted in a sexualized way is immature? I have a penis for a reason. It's to pump scantly clad maidens full of baby banter. It's nature's way of making sure we reproduce. 14 year olds are still watching pokemon and playing card games with their friends.

Because anyone who thinks an imaginary woman with rediculous proportions is clearly someone who isn't actually sleeping with an actual woman but is just alone in fantasy land aka a hormonal teenager. 

Also I said that it makes the game immature and didn't mention the player. Looks like someone accidentally turned up to confession time...

ridiculous proportions. I just looked up Bayonetta and I don't see anything ridiculous about it.

Bayonetta's measurements aren't rediculous. They're more or less ideal but realisitic. In any form of entertainment, they'll depict ideal males and females in sexualized ways. Only prudes who can't handle sexuality in modern times think of sexualized women or men is wrong or only for the immature. Go to Japan and into one of their sex clubs or perhaps a hostess club there.  Tell me where the teenagers are in those places? Hmmm, in the states go to the nude bars or to swingers clubs. Tell me where the teenaged pups are in those places? There are many places adults go to have fun and in many different countries. Only teenagers and prudes feel guillty about the fun stuff. Games like Bayonetta are designed for adults and by adults.

This is what i was afraid of when they announced Wii U exclusive. Bayonetta 1 didn't really break any records, but the sales where decent, especially considering the PS3 version was a piece of shit. This time around with a decent port for both consoles, it could have done "great" considering there wasn't really anything else to play for last gen consoles. But yep, Wii U exclusive pretty much doomed the franchise forever which is really sad, cause its one of my favorite franchises and definitely the best game that has come out of japan since like RE4.

500k in retail sales so far....
It doesn´t seems that it sold a lot on digital format.

Everybody was expecting more, for sure. But I think if it ends with around 700k in the end of its commercial run (like ZombiU or Lego City Undercover), Nintendo and Platinum will feel ok.

lego city and zombi u are already quite above 700k with much time left. bayo 2 may be close to 700k right now. future million seller.

The console has already peaked this year. Just wait for Nintendo's new console in 2016.

lol, the wii u is nowhere near it's peak.

I dont think 500k isnt that bad.
The PS3 and X360 one sold about 1 million each, but both consoles have sold 80mil+
While Wii U managed to sell 500k ( half of what both each done) with only 8mil hardware.

The franchise would've been doomed regardless. At least now there's a second installment. Besides, Nintendo is pretty likely to fund a 3rd game anyways. They didn't want Bayonetta 2 because they thought they would hit the bank.

You're right on Captain Toad, and I mean, 500k isn't what I expected for Bayonetta 2, since everyone praised it so much (in my opinion)

Watch Dogs failed, Ubisoft won't probably return to the Wii U unless it's Rayman,Rabbids and/or other indies like they did with Child of light (I believe)

You're right Batman is at 140k, I'm not 100% how much money is put towards the game and the making for the Wii U version, but I doubt that 140k will cover it. Just my believe

I'm guessing that when VGC updated recently they updated Sonic Boom's Sales, because last time I check it's stood over 20k units or something like that. Don't know if 110k was actually profitable for SEGA and Big red button thought.


140k is $8.4 million. Overall the game sold 1.5 million which brings it to about $90M. This is a definite profit. I'm very certain it costs less than $8 million to port a game from the 360 to the wii u.

 

Sonic Boom suffers from bad word of mouth. They were lucky to make it this far. But if they sell 400K they will make a profit. Sonic Boom was bound to flop the moment the reviews came in. It is lucky to make it this far. Using it in an argument will get you nowhere.


I think Sonic Boom is like......It sells because of how mediocre it is, Sonic 06 was horrible and so was Shadow The Hedgehog, and both games brought around 2 million units sold? Don't remember right now. And with Groups like ProJared and Gamegrumps making fun of it, I wouldn't be suprised if them playing the game brought some profit. 

I loved Shadow the Hedgehog :(
